Abstract
Using the non-invasive back classification of the formetric system, parameters are defined as a tool for measuring symmetry and rotation of shoulders, thorax and waist as well as scoliosis and kyphosis / lordosis angles.
Highlights
Using the non-invasive back classification of the formetric system, parameters are defined as a tool for measuring symmetry and rotation of shoulders, thorax and waist as well as scoliosis and kyphosis/lordosis angles
A 3D reconstruction and -analysis of the back surface of patients deliver a set of objective parameters that can be used in various diagnostic and/or classification procedures
From the acquiesced 3D data a set of objective parameters can be calculated in an automatic way: We present some of the newest parameters for detection and classification of scoliosis and other severe back deformities: Symmetry and torsion of pelvis, waist, scapula and shoulders in relation to each other; opening angles, position and size of waist triangles; scoliotic, kyphotic and lordotic angles
Summary
Using the non-invasive back classification of the formetric system, parameters are defined as a tool for measuring symmetry and rotation of shoulders, thorax and waist as well as scoliosis and kyphosis/lordosis angles. From 7th International Conference on Conservative Management of Spinal Deformities Montreal, Canada. Introduction Using the non-invasive back classification of the formetric system, parameters are defined as a tool for measuring symmetry and rotation of shoulders, thorax and waist as well as scoliosis and kyphosis/lordosis angles.
